Results shown are the mean ± SD of the number of colonies per 105 fetal liver cells plated.

Fetal liver cells from either wild-type or JAK2-deficient day 12.5 embryos were cultured overnight with a JAK2 expressing retrovirus, then placed in colony assays. Results indicate the number of colonies per 105 cells plated from 2 animals.

Fetal liver cells from either wild-type or JAK2-deficient day 12.5 embryos were cultured overnight with a retrovirus encoding either membrane-targeted Mpl or cytoplasmic Mpl, then placed in colony assays. Results indicate the number of colonies per 105cells plated from 2 animals.
